Dark Light, 2014, video still.

These short videos should be shown as loops. Comprising Urban Atmospheres, these works are concerned with interactions of natural and cultural systems in contemporary cities. They explore the dark poetics of urban atmospheres. In building cities, people have sought to control the function and flow of natural systems, a process that has increased with intensity alongside the growth of urban-industrial capitalism. But natural systems can't be controlled, and the effects of doing so are unpredictable; the intersections of energy, materials, technologies and nature are mutable. Dark Light, through still photography and moving images, explores the interplay of fix and flow in energy systems. Cyclonic Abstraction explores the weather systems caused by urban microclimates. Life Lines explores the intersection of electricity and atmosphere.
